PowerGrid InvIT trades at the wider discount of the two with a distribution yield of close to 12 percent, while IRB InvIT Fund holds a portfolio of operating toll road assets. This gap between valuation and profitability is why these InvIT stocks stand out on a simple sector screen, though a formal buy rating needs deeper company specific research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Infrastructure investment trusts, or InvITs, hold operating road and power transmission assets and are structured to pass through most of their cash flow to unit holders as regular distributions rather than conventional dividends. Not every InvIT in the space trades at the same multiple. A screen of listed InvIT stocks against the sector&#8217;s average price to earnings ratio surfaces two names still priced below that benchmark.<\/p>\n<p>IRB InvIT Fund and PowerGrid Infrastructure Investment Trust both currently trade below the broader InvIT sector PE, despite posting positive return on equity. This piece breaks down why each trust screens as undervalued, what the underlying financials show, and the risks that come with owning infrastructure investment trusts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top:
